Wow, that will make life so much easier. I didn't have a formula for calculating the coefficients of the nth iterate, so I had to calculate them by hand (at least until I had enough terms to resolve the polynomial). I think this helps me understand the matrix method better, and why, with an appropriate set of matrices and matrix operations, the two methods should be identical.
